Have you ever gone "wow" at the stupidity of other people?

[Jonny49]

I was surfing the internet recently and jumped onto one of my usual sites, Gametrailers.com. After watching a few trailer I wandered onto the forums, a dark and scary place where I fear to tread mostly because the average I.Q of the average user was somewhere between 4 and 12. As I read a the posts left to a forum about Ghost from Modern Warfare 2 having his own game.
As my eyes followed the page, the forum quickly went from a mildly interesting discussion to a brawl of stupidity. As I recall one of the posts was like this:

"Hey activision get off of Ghost Recons ideas they already have Graw so dont try it."

All I could say was "wow". I was truly stunned at the stupidity of this post. So, have any of you been silenced out of sheer awe at someone else's stupidity?

Yes, a lot, i am surrounded by chavs all day. The stupidity is overwhelming.

 

[FolkLikePanda]

People usually say "wow" at my stupidity

 

[Onyx Oblivion]

Yeah. I did it a minute ago on GameFAQs Assassin's Creed 2 360 forum.

But IRL I say wow a lot at my classmate's stupidity.

Yeah. I did it a minute ago on GameFAQs Assassin's Creed 2 360 forum.

Fixed for me.

Some of that shit is just bananas.

Yes, B-A-N-A-N-A-S.

On a thread here someone showed that video of the Australian presenter/thing guy interviewing and questioning the American public on some basic trivia.

They knew nothing

They couldn't even name a country beginning with U

They live in the United states of America

In careers somebody said "I think that people just made Hitler up, at that he never really existed." all I could do was Facepalm

 

[RoseBridge]

You-tube comments don't even look at them, they will hurt you physically and mentally.
like people arguing over Hitler as a genius, when the video's like of keyboard cat or something.

Yes. Very yes.

A recent moment was when my cousin was picking his 'fro out and stopped after it looked fairly decent, leaving his pick in his hair.

A minute or so later, after being distracted by television, he gets confused and asks me where he put his pick. I did have the gratification of walking over and harshly raking the plastic pick on his scalp, though.

... now that I think about it, most of the moments that I gawk due to sheer stupidity are with my cousin. ._.

Everyday this summer.My co-workers at my summer job were real idiots.

 

[delet]

More than "wow", I find myself Facepalming more and more every day. My teachers making horrible attempts at jokes, people just not getting what they really should understand, etc.

I used to think facepalm was just something you SAID you did, like LOL, but truly it is something I find I must do just about every day now.

 

[Pilot Bush]

yes all the time at school. surrounded by idiots

"Such a beautiful animal is proof of God's existence"

How?

...

 

[Master_of_Oldskool]

Every. Single. Day. At every. Single. Person. I ever. Freaking. Meet.*does not like other human beings*
In all seriousness, one girl at school is just such a dumb bimbo (if you'll excuse the slur) that I react like this to most of what she says. She, who is 14, supposedly gifted, and should know way better, really and genuinely believes that she will 100% be a movie star and refuses to do her classwork because she feels she won't need to.

 

[Sassafrass]

I go 'Wow' at least once a day.
Mostly when I come on here, actually. Some of the threads are just idiotic, really.
And I go 'Wow' at a lot of stuff I hear on the news.

 

[SomethingUnrelated]

Every feckin' day. Somethings happens everyday that makes me stop and think "Wow..." to myself.
